In January, the archipelago experienced a 10% increase in recreational boat registrations, contrasting with a national decline of 18.9%.

So far this year, 1,059 recreational boats have been registered in the Balearic Islands, a figure almost identical to exactly one year ago when 1,056 registrations were recorded.

AENIB represented the Balearic nautical sector at the annual Business Gala organized by CAEB. The event, attended by 400 people, highlighted the effort and investment in innovation and digital transformation of the Balearic entrepreneurs.

Despite the slight decline in the number of boat registrations in the first seven months of the year in the Balearic Islands compared to the same period last year, the archipelago continues to lead the national market with a market share of 17,9%.

The incident occurred last Sunday, when members of the organisation Futuro Vegetal poured paint on the mega yacht Kaos, which is owned by Nancy Walton Laurie, heiress of the Walmart company.
